    820-00165 No Power when Audio Flex Connected

    Yes battery is charging, I get green and amber light - I think I have the issue with it not giving power on signal and providing smc_rst instead as when I press the power button the amber light turns green briefly. HWMonitor seems to be for windows? I've changed the trackpad - only thing left...

    Hi, I have a 820-00165 board - came in liquid damaged - on inspecting the board I found minimal damage at the trackpad connector which I cleaned and replaced the trackpad cable. Mac will only switch on if the audio board flex is not connected to the logic board. I've had this a number of times...

    A2289 (820-01987) Strange powering issue

    OK, so the mac won't boot to recovery or from USB - it only boots to the "select WIFI network" mode with spinning globe. If I connect to a network it does nothing and eventually error's (see attached) - I don't believe there is an issue with the SSD as prior to erasing it with Apple...

    A2289 (820-01987) Strange powering issue

    Cannot install IPSW files onto the Mac either. I've downloaded every Monterey and Big Sur file (not including Beta files) and I get the same error (see attached) every time. Mac won't boot to anything but the connect to a network screen and does nothing from there. So, now my concern is that we...

    A2289 (820-01987) Strange powering issue

    If the issue were Bridge OS would re-installing OSX on the SSD fix the issue?

    OK - Thank you - so is the issue possibly the Bridge OS?
